i think this has been blown out of proportion! discriminating against her bc she doesn't support gay marriage is the same as ppl discriminating gays…. its things like this that prove that there will always be some sort of discrimination no matter what.

Perez, get over it! The US is a democracy, people are entitled to their own opinions regarding gay marriage. People are entitled to freedom of religion, and if she believes that her religion does not permit gay marriage, she's entitled to her beliefs! You are acting like a spoiled brat. She says she is tolerant about gays making their own choices, why is it that YOU think that she has to be an activist for gay marriage if it's not something she personally believes in! Her answer was in no way hateful, but YOU are full of hate.

Good for you Perez!
It's a free country and you question should be taken seriously. It's the 21st century and things like this will affect myself and my daughter future. It was a good question and anyone who bashes you for it is a very closed minded person.

EVERYONE DOES NOT HAVE TO AGREE WITH GAY MARRIAGE. IT DOESN'T MAKE THEM IGNORANT. AND GET OUT OF FAIRY LAND LA AND REALIZE NOT EVERYONE AGREES. I USED TO LOVE YOUR SITE, BUT YOU HAVE REALLY GOTTEN A BIG HEAD. YOU THINK YOUR OPINION IS THE ONLY ONE THAT MATTERS ,AND IF SOMEONE DISAGREES THEY ARE WRONG

Although I don't agree with her, it is just her opinion. That is what you asked. "Do you agree? Why or why not?" How is it a controversy that she doesn't agree with your opinion Perez? I get why she should sure, but there are millions of people just like her that don't agree with you. This is just stupid.

Your own home state just said no. You are talking about how we need to let states decide, well guess what! California voted and said No to gay marriage and now you are trying to overturn that. Some things just arent right, and same sex marriage just isnt right.

perez….i was ready to side with miss california, but you made my point. that which is she shouldn't have voiced HER opinion as her only opinion. she represents a state and her reply should have been a little more broad based. but good god….. larry king? he's half dead for christ sakes! oh and a dripping liberal.

Really? REALLY?
Get over it, we know you are gay and want gay rights. That's your belief and your opinion.
BUT SHE HAS HER OPINION TOO. I respect her for saying how she really feels and standing up for her beliefs. She should not be bashed because of what she said. It was not cruel in anyway.
How come you can rant and rave about how you think things should be, but apparently she can't because it's different from your own views.
Stop posting shit about her.

What a stupid ass bitch. I agree with you, if she's going to be MISS AMERICA (which thank god she didnt get) She needs to be able to represent EVERYONE, gay or straight. The broad is stupid and is a disgrace to California.

so…discrimination IS alive and well in the USA?!? just because she doesn't agree with your opinion she is a stupid bitch? Oh please… you are pathetic and should really re-evaluate your definition of being open. idiot!

you let me know just in time on twitter for me to see it live thanks
i think you did a great job. you were very respectful and calm while still getting your point across. i wouldnt have been able to handle it the way you did.

You are a hypocrite. You penalize her for being honest. Being politically correct for her is equal to being a liar. You should apologize to her and to the public for imposing your own agenda on her. She undoubtedly worked for a long time to compete at this level. She should not have to be untrue to win the prize. You are so in the wrong.

I honestly don't think this is a BIG deal at all…she is entitled to her OWN opinion & it's her fault that she messed it up. I don't think you should keep talking about her anymore cause she's not worth it…so, stop wasting your time on this person.

I think, and not to be rude but, just because you are a homosexual, it does not give you the right to go on tv and belittle someone for expressing their opinion just because they do not agree with your way of life. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and yes, she could have given a more America-friendly answer but, she was being honest. She shouldn't be getting harassed because she told the truth.

So, let me get this straight….she was asked a question, she answered it…and since she didn't give you the answer that YOU wanted you had to go cry and attack. You are the prime example as to why Ms. CA and the vast majority of the world feel the way they do about gay marriage….ain't gonna happen.

Fucking eh! I actually did not hear about this until just now ( I live in Canada tho and thus don't really pay much attention to these beauty things). I think this was a completely relevant question and I long for the day when we can all be equal. I hate that there is inequality all across the board. Be it race, religion or sexual orientation. It's all wrong.

Re: Shannon03 – wtf you stole my cat fucker!
fuck you perez! the point you "attempted" to make is long gone fatso. you ran that shit into the fucking ground and have made a complete fool of yourself in the process. you failed once again.

Perez you are the bitch!!!! Just because she isn't a lezbo doesn't mean she has to agree with the way you people live your sinful life….she was raised in a christian home where the bible says: “If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act. They must both be put to death, for they are guilty of a capital offense." Leviticus 20:13…i back her up completely and i think you are WRONG!!!!

First, this was a much better interview than MSNBC earlier in the day…glad you stepped up the game P. Second, to think she made it through the pageant system without knowing any gay people is so highly improbable…but giving her the benefit of the doubt was noble.

you people are nuts. perez got this. she had no idea how to appropriately answer the question. I don't care what her true opinion is. If she were good she would answer the question in a way that was not offensive. i'm glad you asked this question. it's totally relevant and important.

Wow Perez… I never comment on your site (although I read it every day), but I am so surprised by and proud of your answers on Larry King that I just had to respond. You were so eloquent and funny on the show and you brought up some really great points. Good for you, P!! Team Perez!!

You people make me sick (you other commentators). You're so quick to congratulate her and say she has a right to her own opinion, but so does Perez. It's easy for all of you to anonymously say mean shit on his site, but what he is doing takes real bravery. Something you wouldn't know about if you never had to fight for your rights, but had the luxury of sitting back and idly crushing the rights of others.

Good job Perez, i am also from California. I am not gay, but we have a huge gay community, and many of my beloved friends ARE gay. Im glad that this is staying a hot topic and that the word continues to be spread. Im proud of you Perez, you did a great job. Nuff said.

We are now watching the end of Perez's career.
He has jumped the shark.
Your attitude is fine for this little website, but when you take it mainstream, you just turn people off.
You have been unprofessional, rude, loud and crass.
You want to know why gay marriage is not legal in most states?
It is because in my experience, most gay people, especially the men, are very loud and rude to people. They almost think it is part of the whole gay thing to be rude and loud to people.
You know what, people are getting tired of it.
No matter if gay marriage gets passed in one election, it will ultimately be overturned in another and that is the reality.
Take a lesson from Ellen and Portia and get some class.

I would hate to have a woman like her represent our state, let alone our country. I completley agree with you on this. Ya, ya, ya, I get the whole express your opinion thing- everyone is obviously entitled- but IT DOESN'T make you right! You don't have to agree w/ me either! But at least I support all of you for the decisions you want to make. Someone in that title should represent equality- what America is all about right? Why so many of us are so quick to judge others because that's what mom and dad told us to think, and it's the "Christian" thing to do, I'll never get. Ok people, keep hating, keep discriminating, keep judging, and keep calling yourself "religous" I love you P!

Perez~
I thought your question was perfect and I agree her answer should have been more appropriate.
I would also like to comment on your interview skills. I am seriously impressed, you handled Larry King quite well. Congratulations, that guy can be tough:).

Perez,
I completely agree with you. I think youve handled this very gracefully, all things considered. discrimination is discrimination, regardless of how you word it.
and besides—wtf where those things hanging from her ears?! fugly excuse for earrings…

Shane Redway -- a Canadian rapper and close friend of Drake's -- was killed early Saturday morning in a car crash. He was just 26 years old.

Redway and two others were killed when their car lost control, struck a guardrail and burst into flames. The crash occurred around 4am outside Pearson International Airport in Toronto. It's unclear who was behind the wheel. Police are investigating the crash.

Drake took to Instagram to remember Redway, posting two different tributes.
